Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To identify clinically meaningful patterns in ictal electroclinical features of focal epilepsy using a data‐driven, unsupervised learning approach, and to assess whether such patterns can localize and lateralize the epileptogenic zone (EZ) more accurately than conventional electroclinical interpretation.

Video‐based diagnostics supported by artificial intelligence as an opportunity to address the epilepsy diagnostic gap: A narrative review

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite advancements in epilepsy care, a substantial diagnostic gap persists, particularly in resource‐limited settings. This narrative review explores the potential of video‐based diagnostics augmented by artificial intelligence (AI) to address this gap by enabling earlier and more accessible seizure detection and classification.

Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis: A shared phenotype across brain‐expressed sodium channelopathies

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis (NDEEMA) represents the most severe end of the gain‐of‐function (GOF) SCN1A disorder spectrum. Sporadic cases of congenital arthrogryposis have also been reported in individuals with SCN2A‐, SCN3A‐, and SCN8A‐related developmental and ...

Seizure relapse in new onset epilepsy: It is not always drug resistance

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizure recurrence in new onset epilepsy (NOE) can result from various factors. Although drug ineffectiveness is frequently investigated, other causes—such as nonadherence, inadequate treatment, nonepileptic events (e.g., functional/dissociative), or acute symptomatic seizures—also impact patient outcomes.
